Bindaas in München

Nice restaurant with good food.

Very different from other indian restaurants. They have a clear theme and are doing something different. Gone are the shady tapestries and they bring in a bit more vibrance which is India. The food is delicious and things like the Gobi Manchurian and the Chai bring the classic indian street food to Munich. Their lunch menus are also a great way to taste a bit of everything.

Very authentic delicious butter chicken. Would definitely recommend it

Great service and yummy food!!! They still had the plexi glass up from Covid times.

The staff are super friendly and accommodating, I would give them 10 stars if they could.

The best Indian restaurant in Munich every time I visit...their food is delicious and clean and the staff treat customers well. Worth a try 👍🏼

1. All of the staff was extremely friendly. We were waiting in the queue for ~12mins and was periodically greeted and assured by staff members of a table for us. 2. The food was exceptional, we had butter chicken and chicken biryani, which we ordered to be spicy (spice level was perfect!) and the seasoning was balanced, the butter chicken was just like I wanted, perfect mixture of sweet and spicy. 3. The restaurant can be crowded, I'd advice for anyone who'd want to visit to reserve a table just in case if you're in a hurry. 4. I vividly remembered how I forgot my watch over in the bathroom, and it was memorable gift to me. I went back a day after, and one of the staff (my dear Punjabi cashier friend whom I unfortunately don't know his name) has kept it and returned it as soon as he saw me. Overall, food was nice, staff was friendly, crowded so advisable to book a table.

Very nice restaurant, a little bit copy of ‘Dishoom’ from the UK. Menu looks exactly like theirs but food is amazing! Service is also great.

5 stars on all accounts! Food, ambiance and service was amazing :)

The best indian restaurant in munich

Nice ambience, nice service, and the food was soooo good! Prices not bad, and the cauliflower pieces in sauce tasted better than chicken wings…unique. definitely again

A wonderful Indian restaurant for a group of people, with amazing food and finally aligned price/quantity ratio.

Everything was bad! Food was a trash and only curry even their behavior was not good! Do not come here if you want something which can be named as food!

The best Indian restaurant in Munich. The food tastes delicious and there is a large selection. The restaurant is cozy and the service is generally friendly, but not the best conditions I've had so far.

Great, the food is great, I recommend going if you like Indian food.

I can only recommend it. I won't say anything more about it... 🙏🏼🍀

Good one.... delicious food and nice ambiance

We visited the Bindaas twice and were very satisfied again. You get very authentic Indian cuisine and good portions. The service was excellent and you felt very comfortable. Always my pleasure!

Best service and best food. Thank to all hosts

The food and location was a 10/10! I can definitely recommend it.

Very tasty food, friendly service. Will be happy to come back

Everything was great, I always enjoy coming here. The food tastes extremely delicious, all the waiters are really nice and the atmosphere is really cool!!!

Very nice, masala and chicken teka 👍🏻

I recently dined here and had a mixed experience. We waited a long time just to place our order, which really affected the overall enjoyment. The service was quite slow, and when the food arrived, it was just okay. The dishes advertised as spicy were quite mild, which was disappointing if you’re expecting authentic heat. The tandoori chicken was the highlight of the meal—well-cooked and full of flavor. However, the biryani was a letdown. It felt more like plain rice with chicken curry mixed in, lacking the depth of flavor and balance you’d expect from a good biryani. For dessert, I tried the kulfi, but it had a crystallized texture, likely from being in the freezer too long, which detracted from its creaminess. Overall, the tandoori chicken was great, but service and consistency across the menu could use improvement.

The lunch menu was quite good and fairly priced. Accepted card only over 25 euros not very convenient. The plastic walls make it feel a little bit awkward to sit.

Street food of India done ✅ right

The employee's belittling behavior is bad. At first, when we saw Arabs, he winked at the second employee and told us to charge only cash! While the rest did not tell them this information! I told him why, but we are the ones who have to cash. He said because the network is ruined! I asked foreigners next to us and they said no, he did not tell us! I advise Gulf Arabs and Arabs not to deal with them because they are trying to deceive people. Bad experience in every sense of the word

We were there on Saturday 5/10/24 at 7:30 p.m. Luckily we had reservations! The restaurant was packed… the staff was extremely nice and friendly! The food is super delicious! Would love to come back

Top service, very tasty food, great atmosphere (which is rare for Indians)

Excellent food and customer service. Highly recommended!

A visit to the restaurant feels like a little trip to India. Very tasty food, drinks, mango lassi. We had vegetarian dishes and dishes with meat. I particularly liked the vegetables with chickpea batter (starter). The curry with chickpeas and lentils were quite spicy. Lamb curry and chicken rather mild.

Great food and good atmosphere. Something different. A great Indian restaurant!

After a long search, I accidentally found a restaurant with a good reputation, although at first I didn't know what kind of restaurant it was. After entering I really liked the atmosphere, especially with local music in the background. Also the beautiful decor. Regarding the food, I have to say that I simply enjoyed it. The properly seasoned & grilled lamb with the rice and salad on the side. I also really liked the friendly staff and the fact that you can easily fill yourself up. Thanks

A restaurant with delicious food. The service is good. Regarding Sukhwiuder, his reception was beyond excellent. In short, it is worth a visit.

The food was really amazing! It tasted very good. I had the #20 with spinach and cheese. We also ordered naan bread with garlic, which is highly recommended. The employees were very nice and friendly.

I recently visited Bindas in Munich, and the food was absolutely delicious, paired with a nice interior that added to the experience. However, one suggestion I have is for the waiters to wear a uniform or something distinctive. There were a lot of people around, and it was hard to tell who the staff members were. Other than that, it was a great dining experience!

Absolutely fantastic! Bindaas is a real highlight in Munich for everyone who loves authentic and creative Indian cuisine - and best of all: everything is halal! The dishes are full of flavors, freshly prepared and prepared with great attention to detail. The service was super friendly and gave us good advice. The ambience is modern and cozy – perfect for a relaxed evening. The only small point of criticism: the portions could be a little larger, but the taste absolutely makes up for it. Definitely a clear recommendation!

Highly recommended. Been there thrice and every time loved it

The food was amazing and the atmosphere was very welcoming and cozy.

I recently visited Bindas Restaurant in Munich, and unfortunately, it was one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had, especially as an Indian customer. I was appalled at the way I was treated in comparison to the German guests seated nearby. First of all, I wasn’t allowed to pay by card, even though I noticed several other customers paying with their cards without any issues. When I asked why, a waiter lied straight to my face, claiming it was written in the menu that card payments weren't accepted. However, when I asked to see the menu to verify this, they refused to show it to me. ( After 10 minutes of discussion another guy came to us and told us, that they haven’t written it yet in the menu, and it is available in the digital version now and will be printed soon. So where is this digital version..? Not yet confirmed it and will be publishing soon)..The entire situation felt incredibly discriminatory and deceptive. After some back and forth, they finally allowed me to pay by card, but not before adding another absurd condition—that card payments are only accepted for bills over 30€. Funny enough, this rule didn’t seem to apply to the other patrons. The first staff was extremely rude , showing no signs of basic hospitality, which is shocking for a restaurant. They seemed completely uninterested in providing any kind of respectful service, especially if you weren’t German. Reading the reviews afterward, I realized this wasn’t an isolated incident—it seems like this discriminatory behavior is a recurring issue at Bindas. The food? It was mediocre at best. It was edible, but nothing that would bring me back, especially considering the treatment I received. For an Indian restaurant, this kind of treatment towards Indian customers is truly unacceptable. If you're looking for a place with decent food but horrendous service and a clear bias towards certain customers, then Bindas might just be the place for you. Otherwise, steer clear.

Delicious food. Unfortunately the portions were quite small. The service was a bit strange. We had the impression that they didn't really understand what we wanted.

The food is not bad at all but also nothing spectacular. Compared to the food I had in India of course it lacks of something. The staffs seemed to be unfriendly towards men and friendly enough towards women. They smiled only at me and talked to me nicely and not at my male friend. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is lovely though, with a very cosy atmosphere.

Their house black daal is geninuenly the best you can try in Germany. Definitely the place to be if you're missing dal makhani. The starters are a bit okay, not as great as I would expect them to be. Very hospitable services and great food. Update: The lamb biryani is also the best in Munich. If my friend circle is craving Indian food, we only go here and it's delicious everytime like it was 2 years ago.

The employees are not competent in providing service

The order takes a little while, the service is very high, and the food is something else 👌💯

I ate Indian food here for the first time, very tasty!!

This was the best Indian food I have tasted in a while. Since moving to Munchen, I am still getting my barring on the food options, but landed my sights on Bindaas and found my Indian go-to spot. The location is not far from Marienplatz, so it is pretty central for day goers. It is cash only, the good ones usually are, so be mindful when coming here. But be prepared to eat some authentic dishes cooked with amazing spices. We had the lamb biryani, chicken korma, and samosa. All were distinct and delicious. You will not be disappointed if you are craving Indian cuisine.

A bit hot and spicey, but the atmosphere is totally a indian one. The food came quickly and it was tasty but to be honest have eaten better indian in Munich. Sorry :(

Amazing food!! Butter Chicken, Gobi Manchurian, Black dal were amazing. Fantastic service, they gave us a table despite having a packed house.

My rating is 3.5 Gobi manchurian was awesome, Kadai paneer was bad and nor was the dessert good.

A very excellent Indian restaurant in Munich. To be honest, the food is delicious and we will not forget the employee Hakim 👌🏼

Cup of tea - 3 euros, The jug - which is only a little bigger - 4.5 euros Pretty rip off. In principle, the quality on offer is too expensive and too “wanna be cool” for them. I rarely give *, but it's appropriate here, it's a shame.

The food is average; service needs improvement. There are 5-6 servers all roaming around the restaurant aimlessly. The person who may take order might disappear and you will need to call someone else for your request. If you are around town, and looking to dine here, make sure to reserve prior as they may turn you back (they did that to us on Friday).

We took 2 dishes: vegi biryani and paneer masala. Both were not so delicious and poor. The service from entrance to the food servings was unpleasant. The restaurant was noisy and unpleasant.

4.5/5, the ambience is great and this restaurant is always poppin’. The garlic naan and sauce for the chicken korma were excellent. The chicken itself could have been a bit more tender.

Very good food and friendly staff. Always go back gladly there to enjoy some Indian cuisine

We love Indian food. I personally cook Indian food in my house almost every day. We spent 4 nights in munich, in 3 of them we ate in Indian restaurants. When we came to Bindaas the place was full, and we waited 30 min. for a table. The expectations were high. I ordered the vegetable biriani. It was practically yellow rice with some reasons and a few vegetables. It was absurd..no other word comes to my mind. It tasted exactly as described. We also ordered Mater panir, that was much better in the other places we visited. Place was very noisy, and it felt more like a fast food place than a place to have a nice dinner in. Since it was very full the whole time we were there, perhaps I am the only crazy one. I hope you will have a better experience than I had..

very tasty food! Above all, the friendly service and the good atmosphere in the restaurant make the difference! You will be picked up straight away and taken along in the mood. really good!

This is one of the best Indian restaurant in Europe. Very polite and accomodating staff, they catered to every request, even they replaced one curry dish immediately when we said it's sweet, the taste of food was very authentic, overall I highly recommend this to everyone.

Nice food Especially gobi Manchurian I wouldn’t say the biryani was the best. Its was okish. Especially when its has more chicken than rice 🙏 For some its a good thing but personally i dont like too much pieces in my biryani and also told them not to but i guess its ok. Staff is quite good and friendly. Seating space is ok both inside and outdoors.

Good food but no attention for international customers (no English menu available)

Great curries and delicious naan. Sadly only small bottles of Indian beer, would have much preferred draft or 660ml Kingfisher. If you sit inside prepare for very loud music and high temperatures (on warm days)

Excellent and delicious, but the problem is that it requires cash, although it is in the center of Munich and it is very strong. You should try it..

The place is very popular, make sure you have a reservation. The restaurant is very big (however very few bathrooms) and the style is quite cool and relaxed. The employees are very nice, very fast, and very kind. Inside can be too warm when it is too crowded. The food is delicious. The options are quite diverse and many, there is an option for everyone including vegetarian and vegan, spicy to non-spicy, and curry dripping sauce to drier food. Flavors are incredible despite the variety, herby, and rich. Keep in mind that even the vegetarian options are high in butter or oil and therefore, my stomach can get quite upset.

Fantastic food . I had samosa chat.. it's 😍

Decided on tikka Taka tak after asking the server. The taste was great and flavourful and just nice for 1 person. The interior is very nice and service was prompt. Great alternative from German food.

The food was ok, but nothing more. We had made a reservation by phone, but there was no table when we arrived. I don't understand why the store is so full.

Delicious food that caters to authentic Indian flavors. Service is fast and friendly. Repeatedly ordered house black dal and palak paneer, and will come back for more. Overall a good selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes are offered. The vibe of the place is more friendly and a bit noisy than cosy or romantic.

Awesome restaurant with good food and vibe.

The food is good. But the service is bad and the people are very unfriendly and they were really rude with us

Unfortunately, the restaurant used to be better. The dish (an Indian bowl) was too oily and the drinks way too sweet. But the service very attentive and kind, thank you.

Excellent excellent Indian, one of the best I have been to. Very reasonable in price too - just don’t eat the chilies on the dish whole!

I haven't eaten THIS good Indian food in a long time. We reserved a few hours in advance - you won't regret it! The food tastes fantastic, the sauces are perfect and the naan bread also tastes excellent. Really such a great restaurant that fills you up really well and is also very nicely decorated!

Sehr schönes Restaurant, super nette Bedienung! Essen und Getränke kamen sehr schnell und Portionen waren auf jeden Fall ausreichend. Eines der besten Curry, dass ich in Deutschland bislang hatte! Bei meinem nächsten Besuch in München komme ich wieder!

Excellent Indian food at reasonable price in a vibrant atmosphere. I recommend the tikka masala

A must! The food was divine and the service was excellent! Enjoy, this is a must visit in Munich.

Clean restaurant with excellent food and worth a visit 🇮🇳😍👏

A bit over priced yes, but they service what we pay for. It felt like I was having dinner in India. The spice and the food is as apt as it gets. Super work!! The servers and also friendly and kind. Even if the place was almost packed, the food was served a bit slow but was worth the wait and tasted fresh.

Great indian food, one of the best we ever had!

Sukhdeer was the best and kind we enjoyed our time here

Great service by waiter Barvindar And good food.

Good food, good price… one of the best Indian cuisine in town👍

Every thing i ordered was delicious the place is big and nice

The food was excellent, a very special experience. It was a bit slow to come from the kitchen but worth the wait. Staff very nice and helpful. Everything was clean. We took the chutney samosa, which was extra special.

Very tasty food and friendly service in a nice atmosphere. The only small problem was that it took an exceptionally long time to pay and order, although we were actually sitting on the far corner and therefore certainly not in direct view.

The food was amazing. However, the music during dinner was LOUD which meant people had to basically yell, adding to the high noise level.

The food has nothing to do with Indian food. The food is less than my usual, and if it had less than a star, I would have given it a 4.5 rating. I was surprised. I ordered a taka masala, a taka with butter, and a tandoori chicken, and all of them were not good. I hope to rate the restaurants correctly so that others can benefit.

The Palak paneer was excellent and so were the starters, the samosas and bhajis.

Best Indian in Munich! Simply delicious 👍🏽

Great indian tasty food the biryani’s is soo tasty.. don’t miss it

Good food but slow service The food is delicious but the service is slow

It is with a heavy heart that I unfortunately have to deduct a few stars because our first & last visit to Bindaas didn't go as well as agreed. * I generally find it unfortunate that these days you can only make a reservation by telephone. Because you don't receive an appointment confirmation. That's exactly what happened to us!! We (3 adults + a 7-month-old baby in a stroller) had a reservation on July 26th, 2024 at 3:30 p.m. - the employee confirmed the appointment on the phone. We were there on time that day and stood stupidly in front of the restaurant, the truth was... the restaurant was still CLOSED!! We had come from Hamburg to (supposedly) try out the best Indian in the city of Munich. Oh man! How annoying?! In order to bridge this time in the heat with the baby, we thought about getting a bubble tea at Marienplatz. The (2 hour) time has now passed. At exactly 5:30 p.m. we were back at Bindaas. The restaurant has just opened, I tried to clarify with an employee. What happened to us. Instead of accepting their mistake, he said that it couldn't be that the appointment was confirmed that way. He didn't even want to open his appointment book to see if my reservation was there. In the end he said that it could be that the (possibly) new employee was on the phone who confirmed the appointment because his language skills were not that good. ??? * That's what it's like... when you're traveling with a baby/toddler and suddenly your diaper needs to be changed URGENTLY. Hmm… I asked and the one waiter said there is NO changing table and you could BUT do it on the bench. Hmm? With all due respect! wouldn't want to spoil other people's appetites. I ended up doing my baby's diaper on the tiny and dark toilet - specifically on the toilet seat because there was no other way! It might be nice for prices like these if the restaurant could create a (small) fold-out changing table at some point. * We had to let them know several times when paying. There was a lot going on (that was kind of normal for us). Then one came with a card payment device. Unfortunately he was unfriendly to us and didn't even look us in the face, just told me the amount and in the end he didn't say "thank you" after we paid. In my opinion the tip was not small. Oh… maybe he forgot?! Or did you have a canker sore on your lip/mouth mucosa that you couldn't speak at that moment?! Because it hurt a lot?? Ohhhh whatever… who knows :) Otherwise the food was delicious. We said we love spicy food and our food was made with extra spiciness. It was delicious! Some waiters were very friendly! :) And the location is Instagrammable, you could take some nice photos there. We like to go out for a delicious meal and when we go to the restaurant as paying customers, we can at least expect “a smile on our face”. Or?! :)

eat good Service impersonal Long waiting times for the bill

Very excellent.. delicious taste

The tandoori dishes are really very good, even if you don't always know what to eat with the large menu. Unfortunately the prices are a bit high, but since the portions are large and very tasty, it's still okay.

One of the best dal makhani I had in Europe . Great ambience , amazing service and a lot of chaat option . Samosa chaat is highly recommended .

Place has a great vibe, food is delicious. We ate here after a full day of running around like tourists, it was a satisfying experience.

Sehr gutes indisches Lokal mit starken Gerichten. Das Chicken Tikka Masala war sehr lecker, definitive Empfehlung! Der Service war insgesamt solide, jedoch nicht all zu freundlich. Zusätzlich waren die Tische am Abend nur für eine begrenzte Zeit verfügbar, da sie mehrfach vergeben wurden (hatten nur gut eine Stunde Zeit zum Essen, war für uns aber nicht all zu schlimm). Alles in allem konnte der Laden überzeugen, ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert.

Vor knapp 2 Jahren war ich das erste Mal hier. Obwohl es damals sehr gut geschmeckt hat, habe ich lange mit einem weiteren Besuch gehadert. Grund ist u.a. das sehr volle Lokal an einem Freitagabend gewesen. Mein zweiter Besuch war an einem Mittwochabend. 18 Uhr wollten wir uns eigentlich treffen, aber das ginge nicht, entweder 17:30 Uhr oder frühestens 19 Uhr. Ok, dann wählten wir die frühe Essenszeit. Als meine Freundin nur wenige Minuten vor dem Öffnen das war, standen schon andere Gäste davor und warteten. Die Tür war noch verschlossen. Punkt 17:30 Uhr wurde sie aufgeschlossen, aber nicht geöffnet. Als meine Freundin dann die Reservierung nannte, wurde sie gebeten, doch gleich die Speisekarte mitzunehmen. Guter Service geht anders. Generell zog sich das den Abend durch. Der Service war sehr flott, keine Frage. Aber so richtige Begeisterung sieht anders aus. Die Küchentür wurde in einer Regelmäßigkeit sehr laut mit dem Fuß aufgestoßen, so dass sie auf der anderen Seite an die Wand donnerte. Die Karten sahen auch diesmal nicht so wirklich appetitlich aus, der eine oder andere Fettfleck hatte sich darauf verewigt. Ich konnte meine Freundin überreden, ein Samosa Chaat (7,50 Euro) zu wählen und ich wählte Palak Chaat (7,50 Euro), was ich noch nicht kannte. Bei dem Palak Chaat handelt es sich um knusprigen Baby Spinat mit Joghurt, Zwiebel, Tamarind Chutney und Tomaten. Die Portion war riesig, die Spinatblätter mega knusprig. Alles in allem sehr lecker und eine gute Entscheidung. Meine Begleitung war ebenfalls sehr begeistert von ihrem Samosa Chaat. Ich durfte probieren und es war leicht scharf und mega. Die Teigtaschen sind bei diesem Gericht zerkleinert und werden mit Kichererbsen, Joghurt, Curry und Chutney gereicht. Da wir uns beim ersten Gang Zeit ließen, wurden die Kellner schon etwas ungeduldig. Aber alles noch im Rahmen. Die Hauptspeisen bestanden aus Pav Bhaji (12,50 Euro) und House Black Daal (16 Euro), beides vegetarische Gerichte. Bei dem Pav Bhaji handelt es sich um ein Gericht mit einem Mix aus Tomaten, Paprika, Erbsen, Karotten und Kartoffeln mit hausgemachten Brötchen. Bei den Brötchen handelte es sich um vier halbe Semmeln, schön buttering und vermutlich mit Knoblauch eingerieben. Sehr lecker. Das Gemüse war gut scharf und sehr lecker. Das ganze wurde in einer Art Silberschale serviert. Insgesamt war es zu viel für meine Begleitung, da die Vorspeise mit den Kichererbsen schon sehr mächtig waren. Meine schwarzen Linsen waren der Hammer. Hierbei handelt es sich wohl um ein indisches Nationalgericht, das überall in Indien mehr als 24 Stunden gekocht wird. Dadurch war es schön eingedickt. Dazu gab es Reis und ein paar Kartoffelstücke. Das Gericht war mittelscharf. Die 0,7l Flasche Wasser kostet hier angenehme 6,50 Euro, der Spritz meiner Freundin wurde mit 8 Euro berechnet. Nach knapp 2 Stunden merkten wir, dass einige Gäste am Eingang auf frei werdende Tische warteten und bezahlten. Die verlangte Rechnung wurde nur als Zwischenübersicht gebracht. Im größeren Teil des Gastraumes gibt es noch immer Tische, die durch Glaswände getrennt sind und wildfremde Menschen nebeneinander sitzen müssen. Für mich inakzeptabel.

Schönes Ambiente; meist sehr voll -unbedingt reservieren. Essen war tatsächlich sehr lecker - interessant gewürzt und sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Kritikpunkt sind die Toiletten - hier bitte mal renovieren, aufräumen etc !!! Das alte Sprichwort: schau Dir die Toilette an und dann entscheide ob Du dort essen möchtest würde hier leider negativ ausfallen.
